Party Tip #1

Pre light your candles on the birthday cake.

Why?  When you prelight them before putting them on the cake they will light VERY easy when you go to light the candles.  Instead of waiting for each candle to burn off the little bit of wax.  This just make things flow easier... especially for little bitty kiddos..

Happy Birthday!

A year in review 2014!

It has been a wonderful year at Merry Makers.  I wish I could make myself sit down more often and blog, however I prefer to talk instead of type.

A year in review.
January - City of Greeley's Father Daughter dance - this is always a wonderful dance for dad's and daughters to come spend quality time.  Merry Makers has been a sponsor of this event for 4 years.  We support families!
February - Valentines Day! -- Whew this was fun.. Lots of amazing balloons delivered all over Northern Colorado!
March - BIG Month - Banner Health's Spirit of Women "Day of Dance" event.  Merry Makers created a huge "Horton" from "Horton hears a Who".. Dr. Suess Themed event.  and dance floor decor.

Also - World Balloon Convention - Denver Co, 2014 - Merry Makers competed with just 2 crew members against the best in the world.  While we did not win - we made an impression.  Most of the teams had over 20 members building the displays - we had 2.  Yes.  Colorado and Merry Makers totally rock.

April/May - Prom Season - one of my favorite times of year.  Amazing creations of dance floor canopies for our local schools. - A few of our favorite big annual clients have us decorate for their corporate meetings.

June-August - Full on Summer Time fun.  Festivals including The Greeley Arts Picnic, Fort Collins New West Fest, Windsor Harvest Festival and many others.. We love festival season as we are out in the public having fun with our favorite people... you..

September-November - Halloween - This is all about fun!!  Amazing makeup and cool creative balloons..
December - This is a time for Santa - He is booked every year and you have to make sure you get on the books early to have him at your event.
New Years eve - This year- in Fort Collins.  The magic of Lloyd and Linda will be at the Aztlan Center along with some custom balloon drops.  Brian and I will be at the Lincoln Center twisting balloons up for everyone.  I look forward to seeing you there!!  Blessings and prosperity to all.

Remember --- Make it Merry!!
